A Little Help Please

[GeneMiller]

I really want to install Friday but I ran into a glitch. The tank is obiviously meant to go straight behind. I'm mounting it to the right of the machine. No way can I bend the stuff they sent that much. I thought all this time one of my suppliers had a flexible solution. Turns out it 4" inside also. Won't work. So my only option would be PVC. I can turn the fitting on the blower straight up and run PVC connected with the stuff they sent as a collar. At the tank I can cut off the down angle and then I would have a straight shot in. Ideas please

Do they use any kind of lock tight on that fitting. I remember how difficult it was the last time.

Call Butler and Buy some of their "tiger hose"

Let me get a pic of my van in a few minutes and post a pic of it....

Very durable and what butler uses even to run up and over to the back of the vans and back for their rear waste clean out and also to their high heat blower hook up

Inside diameter has to be 4 1/2" and they have to be willing to sale to a non butler owner. Thanks Mark I'll call tomorrow and see.

I would be concerned with how flexible it is, that it may collapse with your guys 870's.... Maybe not, but Butler's does look more beefy....

That looks like the stuff I use for my wood working on my jet saw dust collector. It would definitely collapse.
